No one got either answer correct, but one person was close, without going over, which was my rule.

That person is DG, who guessed that I consumed 489 restaurant meals, spending $15,612 along the way.

Here's the skinny on the fat: I ate 508 meals out last year and spent (gasp) $17,879. In other words, it was a banner year for my gut and my bank account.

DG, as the winner, your reward is an EatDenver Dining Deck, 52 cards, each offering a $10 discount at a local, independent restaurant that's a member of EatDenver (formerly DINR, the Denver Independent Network of Restaurants).

Send your contact info to cafe@westword.com, and we'll send you the prize.

Oh...and the restaurant I ate at most often? That was a tie between the Squeaky Bean and Tacos Y Salsas.
